Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying math that powers modern machine learning to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives, even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves? And what challenges remain before AI systems can truly operate with agency? If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Mini-episode today!! Next week I'm going a social media hiatus and I can't freaking wait. But before I disappear off the face of the earth for a week, I wanted to discuss some things I've been pondering. First and foremost, I have to talk about Arie and how much I disapprove of The Bachelor filming that breakup (I'm late to the party, I know). Then I want to talk about some money stuff! I'll give you a quick explanation of lifestyle creep and how it can prevent you from achieving true financial freedom. Then we'll take a minute to discuss how money, past a certain point, isn't going to make you any happier. This is a quick episode because I'm tired, overworked, and a little grumpy but you know I still got love for ya! My Get It Together Financial Guide ebook will be available for pre-order VERY soon, and I'll keep you posted on that. Happy spring, Gutter Pigeons!!!

It's #NationalSiblingDay so obviously I had to bring on Ernie. We really wanted to talk about how to develop good leadership skills, and we do some of that, but we mostly complain about Tony Robbins. How ridiculous would it be for a woman not to hire a man because he was too attractive?! Anyway, Ernie and I agree we need better leaders in the world and we talk about how great leaders love feedback and choose love over fear every time. My new ebook, The Get It Together Financial Guide, is available for preorder! Check it out here: http://a.co/606RsHg…

The Bachelor fans rejoice, we've got Marquel Martin on the podcast today! You probably remember Marquel as the 'cookie guy' from Andi Dorfman's season of The Bachelorette and as one of the original cast members on Bachelor in Paradise. But since leaving the reality TV world in 2014, Marquel has quite a story to tell. I was pleasantly surprised with how this interview evolved. Our conversation about the inner workings of reality TV turned into a discussion on faith, spirituality, and the power of attraction in the universe. This guy truly understands what's important in life. You'll learn what Marquel is up to now, how filming the first night of The Bachelorette is just as boozy as you think, and how prayer, positivity, and "speaking things into existence" helped Marquel overcome adversity, including his heart disease diagnosis. This interview has some incredible stories and lessons. You can follow Marquel on Instagram and Twitter @Marquel_Martin The episode is available on iTunes & SoundCloud!…
